After years and years of hard work, where should you retire? One company believes they have the answer, which they say is the best town to retire in New York.
MSN put together a list for every state. With home prices soaring across the country, many retirees are finding that they don't have enough savings to get through their golden years. That's why MSN focused on small towns because they can appeal to those who want a slower pace of life and lower cost of living.
New York's answer is honestly bizarre, but you can keep scrolling for that.
A 2024 analysis of U.S. Census Bureau data found that in 2023, more than 338,000 Americans relocated upon retirement, the highest number in three years. With home prices soaring across the country -- and many retirees not having enough savings to get through their golden years -- small towns can appeal to those who want a slower pace of life and lower cost of living."
MSN says of all places, Lake Success is the best place to go. If you're like this author and never remotely heard of this town, it's located on Long Island:
- Population: 3,119 (12% age 55-64 and 31% age 65+)
- Homeowners: 100% of the population
- Renters: 0% of the population
- Median household income: $177,500"
Judging by the photos online of this area, it's super nice, but looks like you may need to be super wealthy to live there. Seriously though, have you ever heard of this part of New York?
